Mehfil

The pendant is a vintage Afghani piece, studded with glass, all the way from a vendor in Lahore. It is 2.8" long with a 2" long fringe that tinkles gently, being tethered by garlands of Czech glass beads and carnelian nuggets.

The pendant is carried by a necklace of sumptuous, waxy carnelian beads, howlite paisley shapes and dull gold lost wax cast beads. An ornamental hook clasp for closure. The necklace is 26" long, but can be shortened if you wish it closer to your neck.

Reminiscent of parties and gatherings, with poetry readings and song( the Persian word for this is Mehfil), peacocks treading carefully in the heat and dust - a mehfil of the best people, having a wonderful time.

I am very proud of my body of work and what people say about it, here are some of the compliments I have received

'Neena, the necklace has just arrived & I can't find enough of the right words to do it justice. Somehow "stunning" "gorgeous" "exquisite" don't seem to fit the bill! It's definitely a statement piece ..................' LJ

'Wow received my jewellery to day. Love them, so beautifully presented in a pretty green box and many thanks for gift of earrings, lovely, thanks :-)' AT

'Hi Neena, just been busy all week at a folk festival.....my Mme Butterfly drew lots of admiration, as did my Ice Queen and someone leaned over the counter in a store of healing and crystals and exclaimed at my beautiful lapis. I so enjoy wearing my pieces and the attention they receive. ' LB

' Neena, I can't describe how delighted I am with Scherezade - she is simply breathtaking.' EW
